About This Home
As of September 2025Tucked away on a storybook acre just minutes from downtown Wakefield and the Narragansett Pier, this modern farmhouse ranch is a sanctuary of beauty, comfort, and sustainability. The nature-inspired grounds unfold like a private garden escape lush perennial plantings, a koi pond, and winding stone walls. Meander between patios, a pergola-covered terrace, and a 16' x 28' greenhouse with automatic irrigation, surrounded by land that has been maintained organically since 2018. Vaulted ceilings soar above the chef's kitchen, where radiant floors warm your feet and Marvin windows frame views of the pond. The open flow connects to the dining area and living room with its cozy fireplace, perfect for gathering with friends. From the sunroom, watch koi glide lazily through the water, or step outside to the outdoor shower after a day in the garden. The spacious primary is its own retreat, with his-and-her closets and a spa-like bath with a soaking tub, double vanity, and walk-in shower. Thoughtfully renovated in 2019 with high-end materials white cedar shingles, energy-efficient windows and doors this home also offers the latest solar panels, a battery powerwall for true off-grid living, and radiant heat throughout much of the main living spaces. Even the insulated two-car garage comes with a generous workshop for projects and hobbies. A rare blend of timeless charm and self-sustaining design where every sunrise, every garden bloom, and every breeze feels like part of the dream.
